Don't take this as proof, but likely dates of Steam sales (thanks 7extonly):

"When Valve contacted me about two weeks ago to announce their Autumn (nov 21-27) and Winter (Dec 20-Jan 4) sales – and to ask whether we’d like to include SOTMC (Secret of the Magic Crystals) or not – I came up with an idea. Let’s set the price at $1.99 and try to generate a total sale of 50.000+ copies."

Amazon rep said:
Also Black Friday will include this bundle for $7.49:
Victoria Franchise
Hearts of Iron III Collection
King Arthur Collection
King Arthur II
Achtung Panzer 1943
Gettysburg Armored Warfare

We'll have Steam keys for the games that have Steam counterparts (I think). Need to check with Paradox.
I think most of those games appeared on bundles or offered as key by others. So I'd say they'll probably be all Steam considering earlier Paradox Bundles. But wait and see.

Also Pint Sized Paradox Package, doesn't contain the actual expansions of Crusader Kings just musics and fancy graphics and a Ruler Designer that you wouldn't use. Actual expansions are Sword of Islam, Legacy of Rome and Sunset Invasion.
P.S.: It doesn't include the actual game but you may have already noticed that.
 
More interesting than any sales date, what's this about Secret of the Magic Crystals 2? Get your name in the credits?!

Main reason would be that if we reach our goal of 50.000+ copies then we’ll pour this money into producing SOTMC II.

6-10 copies of SOTMC – Receive a copy of SOTMC II for free* + your name in the credits of SOTMC II

This is very intriguing.

OMFG HOLY MOTHER OF MARY IN HEAVEN I CANT BELIEVE IT WTF WHERE ARE MY SEDATIVES AAAAHHH
Any call of duty deals coming up that you guys know of? I just really want Black Ops 1.
 
I remember a few months ago some dev outed the start date of some big sale and then tried to go back on his word. And many people argued that he was full of shit and came up with all sorts of reasons as to why. And it turned out that he was telling the truth all along.

Let's not do that again this time, okay?

Please be $5 for the game and $5 for the DLC :D

Optimistic fella aren't you?
 
With all the people buying Spec Ops, was there ever a GAF PC thread with best settings etc that I can get a link to?

The only thing you might have to worry about is after starting it up for the second and onwards time, there might be either screen tearing or frame rate issues, I don't remember which. There was a fix in the OT, I'll try to look it up as I'm pretty sure they never patched it.

So I was going to get Assassin's Creed 3 from GMG but they're not getting their keys until the 23rd (and even then they're never 100% reliable) so I was wondering if I could get a US Gaffer to gift me AC3 and I pay them back via paypal, I would be eternally grateful.

Update on the Take Two Amazon Black Friday deals mentioned by Tony:
We won't have Spec Ops on sale until December. Also, someone check Joystiq :).

This doesn't even make sense. I hope this is a mistake or something. According to their own pricing God and Kings alone should be $7.50.

Apparently no one wanted the Crayon Physics Deluxe key from my HIB last week, so I'm opening it up for FFA to lurkers and non-GAFers:
